"Little girl, try saying that again!" the staff member roared.
"Alright, alright, what are you doing? Don't scare the little girl." Liu Hu became interested in Li Yijin. He dismissed the staff and then chuckled, "Little sister, how are you feeling?"
"It's quite fun," Li Yijin nodded.
“You’re just playing a minor role, you won’t get many opportunities to show your face.” Liu Hu narrowed his eyes and used his trump card: “I’m one of the investors. How about this, I’ll talk to the director and change the script so I can give you more shots and lines.”
"You know, this drama has a big budget and a lot of stars. It's bound to be a hit. The more screen time you get, the more the audience will remember you. Then I'll use my connections to get you a supporting role, and that'll be your official entry into the entertainment industry."
Liu Hu was very confident because all the girls who played minor roles in the film crew were dreaming of becoming stars.
This tactic of his always works, since no one can resist the chance to become an overnight sensation.
Of course, this guy is just making empty promises. There are plenty of actresses who want to rise to the top, so how could he have that much energy to promote them?
He'd cheat you, play with you, and then dump you, denying everything. If you made a big fuss, he'd kick you out of the production crew.
But who is Li Yijin? She was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, how could she possibly fall for this?
She rolled her eyes: "Uncle, your approach is outdated. Go find someone else."
"You don't believe me?" Liu Hu was taken aback, then smiled and took out his business card: "Look, this is my business card. I work for Metro Entertainment Company, and my other identity is a talent scout."
"I think your temperament is quite suitable. How about this, come to my room, and we'll have a good chat about the plan. I guarantee you'll be an instant sensation."
"Not interested, I'm going to remove my makeup, bye-bye." Li Yijin made a face and turned to leave.
"Little girl, do you really not know what's good for you?" Liu Hu's face darkened, and he was quite embarrassed and angry.
"I forgot to tell you, I'm just being ungrateful, so what?" Li Yijin got angry: "You're like a leech, aren't you annoying?"
"Well, I've only been back for a few days, and the newcomers in this crew are already trying to rebel?" Liu Hu sneered, pointing at Li Yijin: "If you know what's good for you, come with me. If you serve me well, I guarantee you'll have everything you want in the future."
"If you upset me today, I guarantee you won't be able to stay on any film set."
"I can't be bothered with you." Li Yijin rolled her eyes and turned to leave.
"Stop right there! Did I say you could leave?" Liu Hu roared in anger. In this small corner of the film crew, he had never encountered anyone who dared to give him a hard time.
He reached out and grabbed Li Yijin's wrist, but Li Yijin didn't tolerate him. She turned around, grabbed a prop, and swung it at his head.
Bang... The rubbery spiked club slammed down hard on Liu Hu's head.
Although it wouldn't cause any serious injury, it still hurt quite a bit to have that thing hit his head. Liu Hu let out a howl and let go of Li Yijin's hand.
"Is Director Liu alright?" Several sycophants, seeing their chance to shine, rushed over.
"Arrest this little girl! Damn it, she's gone too far!" Liu Hu cursed, clutching his reddened head.
"Alright, you there, call security over here and arrest this crazy girl and teach her a lesson."
Li Yijin wasn't afraid at all. Seeing Ye Xingchen coming over, she turned her head and hid behind him.
"What's wrong?" Ye Xingchen frowned upon seeing the scene.
“This guy wants to sexually harass me, and if I don’t agree, he’ll force me.” Li Yijin pointed at Liu Hu.
"Liu Hu, is that true?" Lin Nianwei's expression changed.
She is also an actress herself, so she knows how difficult it is to be a proper actress.
Beautiful women are a scarce resource, and countless men are eyeing them covetously. She wouldn't allow such a thing to happen in her company or film crew.
She can't control whether someone does it willingly, but if you force them, then don't blame her for turning on you.
"I just thought she had good potential and wanted to scout her out, but I didn't expect this crazy girl to start hitting people with something." Liu Hu said angrily, "President Lin, this kind of person cannot stay in the crew. Get rid of him immediately."
"You should be the one leaving. Go back and tell your boss that if you're sincere about cooperating, then cooperate; if you're not, Nianwei Entertainment has no shortage of partners."
Lin Nianwei's expression darkened slightly: "I can't control what others do, but I won't allow someone like you to appear in my production crew or the films I invest in."
"Are you serious about Lin Nianwei?" Liu Hu's face darkened. He wasn't running an ordinary entertainment company.
The big bosses behind the company are all prominent figures in Yanjing, and he felt he had already given Lin Nianwei enough face.
"I'm serious. Please leave now. I'll arrange for someone to handle the production management for this film. You don't need to worry about it," Lin Nianwei said, waving her hand.
"Lin Nianwei, do you really think you're a human being?" Liu Hu sneered. Now that the pretense was over, he wouldn't hold back anymore.
"Mr. Zhang of Xincheng Entertainment is my cousin. Could you find out who's backing Xincheng Entertainment?"
“It doesn’t matter who’s backing us. If we can’t work together, then let’s talk about terminating the contract,” Lin Nianwei said. “I don’t lack investment, nor do I lack actors. But Mr. Zhang should consider his company’s reputation.”
"With trash like you in the company, you'll ruin everyone's character sooner or later."
"Go to hell, you surnamed Lin, do you really think you're someone important?" Liu Hu cursed. "Let me tell you, the Chen family has shares in our company. Who do you think you are? Believe me, my cousin can make sure you can't stay in Yanjing with just one word."
"Is it true that the Chen family holds shares? Could the shareholder be Chen Hao?" Ye Xingchen asked.
"Since you've heard of Young Master Chen, you should know who he is. That's right, the shareholder is me, Young Master Chen." Liu Hu sneered, "He has a very good relationship with my cousin. Killing you is just a matter of a word for him."
"Since that's the case, then it's easier to talk." Ye Xingchen smiled, and suddenly, he spread his five fingers and slapped Liu Hu's face hard.
*Smack!* Liu Hu let out a howl, spitting out blood; all his teeth had been shattered by Ye Xingchen.
"You, you..." Liu Hu's mouth was full of blood. He stammered as he looked at Ye Xingchen, completely stunned by the beating.
"Don't even mention it, even if Chen Hao stood in front of me, I'd still beat him up." Ye Xingchen said calmly, "Now take your people and get out of here right now. Have your boss, Mr. Zhang, come here personally with the termination contract to terminate the contract. If you're even a minute late, I'll make you regret it."
"Fine, you've got guts. Tell me your name. I want to see who you are, not even giving Young Master Chen face," Liu Hu said resentfully.
